OK guys here is a good one for you.
This is my Dads car.
Stage 2 block. M&A heads. 72 turbo. DFI with a VIC controller. MSD DIS 4.
Trans is a built TH 400
Rear end is a Detroit locker with 3.50 gears in it.
We ran this thing at Palmdale last night. This is the fun part.
We turned up the boost on every run and the car ran 10.9 to 11.0.
Boost started at 18 psi on the first run to 23 psi on the last run.
MPH stayed between 123 and 124. We have noticed that at half track the motor is hitting the rev limiter at 6500 rpms.
Cam is said to have max rpms at 5800. That is the powerband.
Duration on the cam is 224 intake and exhaust. 112 degrees lobe separation.
I believe the converter has way too much slippage in it and that is what is causing us to redline. It is a new Art Carr ( from the real Art with a beard). Stall speed is 4000 rpm. This car just runs on the track.
What do you guys think is going on?
